Camping – Day 3

Tuesday (July 1st): Danielle received a campfire “recipe” from our friend Carol-Lyn, in which you hollow out oranges, place biscuits inside the peel, and (we assumed) wrap them in tin foil to be placed in the campfire. A little like orange rolls. So, this morning we thought we’d give it a try. They weren’t quite what we expected, but they weren’t bad.



After breakfast, Amanda, Danielle and I again drove to the nearby campground to “borrow” their showers. However, this morning we did not go undetected. When we got back to Amanda’s care, there was a ticket for the $17/night camp fee. Ugh! But her dad found the silver lining – since we paid for a full night of camping, we could use the shower legally the next morning. This was not to be. When we went to shower Wednesday morning and told the ranger (a different ranger) the situation, he said that we had been charged for the previous night – ah, the humanity. But then he said the campground charges non-campers $2/shower. So, the ranger from Tuesday charged us a full night camping when the campground has a policy to charge $2/shower? Crazy.

We drove south on the coast today – again, majestic and stunning. We visited Cape Perpetua, the sea lion caves, and the Heceta Head lighthouse. See for yourself.
